About our non-slip bath coating in Jumpers Common
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Jumpers Common
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Jumpers Common use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What we’re called out for in Jumpers Common
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
The things clients typically mention when they call are:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether they match the colour on site
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
